Can we call Circles and Curves an actual subject matter? I think we can. I know in the world of conceptual art dwelling on the nature of a circle might seem like a simple idea, but in the world of exquisite figure ground composition the circle and the curve are righteous and rich subjects.

So, I have abandoned the line (temporary) and picked up the curve.

Would you like to see what that looks like? Well, I am going to show you–Tomorrow! Here is a little teaser.

We can’t have just one incredibly riculous cartoon charcter in this blog post now can we? We need two. I’ll stop there.

You are so right Ann. It is really interesting to see a quilter’s evolution–even my own. It’s surprising really when you look backwards, which maybe we don’t do often enough. Thank you for stopping by!

Loved your circle and curved exercises and creations. I too was fascinated by the circle and developed a technique with needlepoint where the canvas was woven around a metal ring that created an instant frame and then used it for underwater compositions since there can be lots of bubbles and round imagery in water and then made embroidered faces (human, moon, sun etc..with a smaller metal ring for jewelry and box lids. Fun as you can imagine the depth of designs for both that my students came up with. Broadening a theme artistically sure is fun. You do it so well and are an inspiration to us followers. Thanks.

Thank you Carole! It is interesting when we stick with something and look at it again and again from a variety of angels. And then we look at all of those angles together and it can really inspiring. Thank you for sharing your story about circles and needlepoint. I would love to see reall images of your work. Did you save any of them?
